:''This article considers two lines in a plane. For two lines not in the same plane, see [[Skew lines#Distance]].''

The '''[[distance]] between two [[Line (geometry)|straight lines]]''' in the [[plane (geometry)|plane]] is the minimum distance between any two points lying on the lines. In case of intersecting lines, the distance between them is zero, because the minimum distance between them is zero (at the point of intersection); whereas in case of two [[Parallel (geometry)|parallel]] lines, it is the [[perpendicular]] distance from a [[Point (geometry)|point]] on one line to the other li0ne haga mundu torkari in english anus vegetable soupline.
